Zone 2 Won’t Save Your Knees.
from The Unbroken Protocol · host Abraham Spring
You can build a huge engine in triathlon and still keep breaking down.This episode is a recovery-led breakdown of Strength & Conditioning for Triathletes why “doing some gym” isn’t the same as real S&C, and why most online programs fail the moment your season ramps up.I start with the moment I learned this the hard way: returning to football and feeling a clear physical bottleneck then meeting a world-class S&C coach who tested me, identified exactly where I was leaking force, and reshaped how I coach forever.From there, we apply the R.A.C.E. Protocol to triathlon:Recover (state + adaptation), Align (season + bottlenecks), Condition (robustness + tissue tolerance), Execute(minimum effective dose in-season).You’ll understand how to build a chassis that can handle volume, intensity, and years in the sport without living in the gym.Unbroken Triathlon Club - Recovery-Led Performancewww.unbrokenclub.com | @unbrokentriathlonclub
